If the user continues the crushing and drying process while the condensed water container 13 is full, the water in the condensed water container 13 overflows. Alternatively, if the user continues the pulverization and drying process while removing the condensed water container 13, the water stop valve 20 is operated, and the condensed water is removed from the condensed water container 13.
And flows out to the deodorizing device 12 through the gas discharge pipe 11. Normally, the temperature of the catalyst heater 26 during the drying process is controlled to about 600 ° C. as shown in FIG.
The function of the deodorizing function of the catalyst 25 is activated. In this state, when water enters the deodorization device 12 through the gas discharge pipe 11, the water is heated by the catalyst heater 26 and becomes steam. Due to the temperature of the steam, the temperature of the temperature sensor 27 provided in the catalyst heater 26 of the deodorizing device 12 decreases.

することができる。The temperature of the temperature sensor 27 is monitored, and when the temperature of the temperature sensor 27 decreases to a certain set value or a certain rate or more during the drying process, the heating of the catalyst heater is stopped,
The control means 21 controls the catalyst heater 2 so that the drying process is also stopped.
6 is controlled. In this manner, it is possible to prevent the catalyst heater 26 from being easily broken due to a thermal shock or the like, and to prevent the life of the catalyst heater 26 from being shortened.

When this thermal shock is repeated, the catalyst heater is likely to be disconnected. In order to prevent this disconnection and to reduce the thermal shock applied to the catalyst heater 26 as much as possible, the temperature sensor 2 in the deodorizer is used.
If there is a sudden change in the temperature of 7, the heating of the catalyst heater 26 is stopped. As a result, an odor is likely to be generated from the deodorizing device 12, so that the pulverizing and drying process may be stopped at the same time as the catalyst heater 26 is stopped.

During the crushing and drying, the steam pressure in the garbage storage container 2 rises and pushes the water accumulated in the gas discharge pipe 11 into the deodorizer 12. However, as shown in FIG.
Is disposed above the deodorizing device 12, and the outlet is connected to the deodorizing device 12.
By disposing at the lower part of the device, water accumulated in the gas discharge pipe 11 is less likely to enter the deodorizing device 12, and water once entering the deodorizing device 12 is easily discharged from the outlet. I have. Should the water entering the deodorizing device 12,
It is applied to the catalyst 25 and the catalyst heater 26 and cools the catalyst heater 26. However, the water once inside the deodorizing device 12 is immediately discharged to the outside through the exhaust port 32 of the deodorizing device 12. The water impingement instantaneously applies a thermal shock to the catalyst heater 12, but the water is immediately discharged through the exhaust port 32, so that the thermal shock until the entered water evaporates can be shortened. The life of the heater 26 is extended.

The same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted. In the present embodiment, in addition to the first embodiment, a catalyst heater 26 having a convex top surface is used. Even if water is applied to the catalyst heater 26, water does not accumulate on the top surface of the catalyst heater 26. Such a catalyst heater is configured.

が延びることになる。The operation of the above configuration will be described. The operation is the same as that of the first embodiment up to the point where the condensed water is flooded into the deodorizing device 12 through the gas discharge pipe 11. During the crushing and drying, the vapor pressure in the kitchen waste container 2 rises and pushes the water accumulated in the gas discharge pipe 11 into the deodorizer 12. As a result, the water that has entered the deodorizing device 12 is applied to the catalyst 25 and the catalyst heater 26 and cools the catalyst heater 26. Water applied to the high-temperature catalyst heater 26 jumps vigorously through the deodorizer 12. The splashed water also reaches the top surface of the catalyst heater 26. However, even if water is applied to the top surface of the catalyst heater 26, the water immediately falls from the catalyst heater 26 because the top surface of the catalyst heater 26 is convex.
Thus, the thermal shock due to water and heating is applied to the catalyst heater, but the shape of the top surface of the catalyst heater is lower than when the catalyst heater is concave.
The time during which the thermal shock is applied is shortened, and the life of the catalyst heater 26 is extended.

As shown in FIG. 11, when the inside of the deodorizing device 12 is not flooded, the steam cannot be detected, and the output of the steam detecting means 29 is low. At that time, if water enters the deodorization device 12 due to some abnormality, the catalyst heater 26, which has become hot, converts the water into steam and evaporates it. As shown in FIG. 11, the steam detection means 29 detects this steam and stops the drying process.

On the other hand, if water is present in the deodorizing device 12, the temperature of the temperature sensor 27 of the catalyst heater 26 is reduced to about 100 ° C. once to evaporate the water, as shown in FIG. Continue to maintain until. When the water completely evaporates, the temperature of the temperature sensor 27 rises while drawing a parabolic curve. As described above, when the temperature of the temperature sensor 27 of the catalyst heater 26 is equal to or lower than the predetermined temperature (for example, 300 ° C.) and the rate of temperature increase (temperature increase for a certain time / some time) is equal to or less than a set value, Means 2
1 judges that “the inside of the deodorizing device 27 is submerged” and the control means controls the heating of the catalyst heater 26 to be stopped, thereby preventing a reduction in the life caused by the heating of the catalyst heater 26 at the time of startup. You can do it.

When the temperature is applied to the temperature detecting means 28, the temperature of the second temperature detecting means 28 decreases. The control means 21 monitors the temperature of the second temperature detecting means of the gas discharge pipe 11 and the temperature of the temperature sensor.
During the drying process, the second temperature detecting means 28 and the temperature sensor 27
The control means 21 controls so that the drying process is stopped when the temperature difference has changed to a certain value or a certain ratio or more. As described above, the decrease in the temperature difference between the second temperature detector and the temperature sensor 27 is detected, it is determined that the deodorizing device 12 is submerged, and the control means 21 stops heating the catalyst heater 26, and 26 can be prevented from being shortened by reheating.
